Update Manager broken?
I am running Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64 with kernel 2.6.28-11-generic. So far I have been keeping up with only security updates. I installed LXDE just to try it out, did not like it, so I uninstalled it later. After that the Update Manager seems to be "confused".
1. I start the Update Manager and I am first greeted with a message: "Not all updates can be installed". This is followed by instructions "Run a partial upgrade, to install as many updates as possible." and also some hints as to how this could have been caused. This window has a button "Partial Upgrade", so I click it.
2. Next window tells me that this upgrade requires:
Remove linux-generic
Remove powermanagement
Remove xscreensaver
Install linux-headers-
Install linux-headers-
Install linux-image-
Upgrade linux-headers-
Upgrade linux-image-generic
I click on Start Upgrade.
3. The window is dismissed and nothing happens.
I also tried:

mark@willie:~$ sudo apt-get autoclean
